Temple Stay Korea had been Buddhist country. Buddhism entered Korea almost 1,500 years ago. It came through China to Korea, through Korea to Japan. In the past, Buddhism has been one of the two fundamental theories that sustained past Korea. Those are Buddhism and Coufuciousnism. In these days, those two traditional philosophies don't have as much influence over the society as it did in the past. However, it still remains in Koreans way of thinking and way of reacting. Many foreigners in Korea tend to visit Buddhist temple in mountain. They practice 'zen' meditation with monks, eat Buddhist vegetarian food and take regular daily routine as monks do there. Doing those, they renew their heart and reflect on themselves and keep distance from busyness in city life. Temple stay is one of the good ways to experience Korean culture.
